YEEEAAAAHHHH
Anyway, in the tradition of the great Tee and the Jee...
THIS IS YOUR ROGUE TRADER
Darius Vindicus IV - Rogue Trader
Before his accident, Darius was a scholar, a wise and fair leader, a brilliant tactician, and a peerless commander. From the helm of his starship, the --I'll Let You Decide, Since It's Your Ship Now--, Darius garnered fortune and glory for himself and his men for over a century. However, several years ago, in a battle against a Tzeentch Cruiser all the way from the Eye of Terror, The Unspeakable Word(See this? This is what we in the business call an adventure hook), the bridge of the ILYDSIYSN suffered a lucky lance strike. Almost everyone there at the time was killed, but Darius somehow survived. He was grievously wounded, however, his face seared to the bone by the lance's radiance and his arms and legs shattered by shrapnel or frozen by the void. Knowing nothing could be done to restore him, but unwilling to lose their beloved captain, the remaining members of his entourage entombed him in a black sarcophagus on the bridge where he could continue to lead for centuries more.
Sadly, the Darius they knew was gone. Exposure to the vacuum caused his brain to hemorrhage, and he became unstable, vaccillating unpredictably between catatonia, psychotic and wrathful episodes, delusions, and rare glimpses of his old self. The vessel limped back to port, fleeing the wrath of The Unspeakable Word, and began the long process of repairing the vessel and finding new men to replace the ones killed.
Now, the ship is repaired, new leaders have been recruited (That's you), and Darius' career is ready to continue, regardless of his physical condition.
You live in The Koronus Expanse, and it's about to experience real change.
